This video just hit my feed, after 5 years, but this is really helpful - so much simpler than a lot of the other box joint jigs out there! Love your channel!
Triple chip blades give a nice flat bottom. When I had my shop the Humane Society contacted me make Cremation Pet Coffins. They were Redwood finger jointed boxes. Rabbeted tops & bottoms milled to fit. When boxes were glued up (sides & bottom) the top would be placed on with bevel detail added to the box, sanded and oiled. Nice way to remember our pets. Good Job!
Simplest, shortest, clearest explanation, zero BS, no long intro, no annoying "music". That's why this channel is one of my favourites. Best content.
👍👍
Same here. The efficiency of her videos cannot be understated. She knows what we’re looking for and DELIVERS. I LOVE this channel.
Great video. So clear and well done. My mom was my main table saw teacher back in the 1970s. She learned from her uncle on the farm in the 1940s. So glad to see awesome women marking videos like this. I’ll subscribe.
That’s awesome
Thank you for sharing the links to the blades.
The best part of the video is that you took the time to explain the joint and the jig. So many other videos on this same topic completely miss the part about how tight the joint should be and how to remedy it. Kudos. You are a fantastic teacher and content provider.
Glad you liked it!
I've used this jig many times over the years and it works great! Simple, easy, fast. 👍
Thanks Tamar.
Great to hear!
Thanks for the excellent tutorial. It took me two tries but I finally got it to work. (It helps to follow the ALL the instructions!) How to adjust the pin in relation to the blade if too tight or loose is very important. I was surprised how many finger joint jig tutorials leave that part out. All your tutorials are excellent. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for taking the time to educate the complete novice like me. I made my first box the other day but it would look so much better with finger joints. Most tutorials suggest a dado stack but we can’t get them in the UK. So again, thank you and keep them coming.
Another great video. I wish I’d followed this jig build instead of others I ended up using, but it’s still good to know. Thank you!
I've been watching videos all morning on how to make these jigs and this is by far the simplest one I've seen yet. Thank you. I want to build a jewelry box for our granddaughter for Christmas and I don't want to have to spend more time building a jig for the joints than the box itself. Lol
This is just what I'm looking for! Thanks!! Your content is always what I gravitate towards when I see it in the results ... clear, easy instructions. Thanks!
I've been building furniture, gun stocks, pistol grips, and almost anything that can be made of wood since I was 18. Monday I'll be 88. Never had a sled except one for the drum sander. You've got my attention, I'm going to make a few different ones . Thanks
This is the very definition of a jig. A simple piece that makes doing simple, yet repetitive work that is easy to do incorrectly, less likely to be ruined because something wasn't done just right. Fantastic!
Thanks! I just love how simple it is yet the outcome is really impressive looking.
I love the way you handle safety. Great job. Congratulations!
Glad you like it! Thanks
Definitely super simple...and just in time for my joinery studies. Thanks!
Awesome. Love it when that happens! Ha!
I believe you nailed the easiest method to get this jig done right.
The thin cutting strip jig is truly the key!
Great job.
Thanks! I love that thin ripping jig. Also another really simple one to make
THANKS FOR SHARING. lOVE THE PRESENTATION FROM SOUTH AFRICA

After all the various finger joint videos I've watched over the years I haven't seen a video until now that explains how to make the jig, how to adjust it and how to alternate the boards so the fingers line up in such a simple and quick manner. Good job. Thank you.
Awesome. So glad you found it informative
This was extremely helpful. Thank you for making this video! 👍👍
Awesome. I’m so glad
Awesome video. Get your jig zeroed in then drill some holes through the jig and add dowles with the female end in your fence.
I've probably a bazillion videos on box joints and this is by far the best. Good Job!!!
Awesome to hear
Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for!
On my list of things to try.
Lot's of great ideas!
Marc
I’m glad I watched your presentation I was trying to make this box joint and it wasn’t working, I didn’t realize I had to turn my other piece like you just showed me, 🤪. Thanks.
Nice! Glad it was helpful!
The jig lady strikes again!! Not sure how I missed this one before. Thanks for all the great vids!!
Hahahah! Thanks!
Nice work Tamar. I love that you took to the time to mention blade forms as that really completed the video.
Thanks! Yeah. I’m so happy that I picked up his blade. Excited to do some more joinery with it
Thanks for your videos!!! 🙏🏼
Yes, your video Tamar was very helpful! It was (To me at least, LOL) very nice & concise as opposed to the majority of videos on CZcams. Thank you for posting it!!
So glad it was helpful! I can’t stand when people go on for hours before getting to the point. Ha.
I've made the same jig and attached it to a miter gauge to use on my router table. Just put a fence on the miter gauge and cut some slots in it. Then take the jig you made and run 2 1/4-20 screws thru the jig and into the slots. The slots give you the adjustment you need to set the finger width. You could probably clamp it to the fence on the miter gauge too if you didn't want to mess with screws and slots. But, it works so well and is so simple just like you show.
Cool. I’ve done this on my router table too. Not with the adjustable aspect though... ha
Very well presented! Great demonstration.

I love watching your videos you explain things very well and make it easier to follow along. I really appreciate your videos
That’s so awesome to hear. Thanks so much!
This is a super simple awesome jig Tamar, just how I like them! I have the same tablesaw you have now I just got to pick up a flat tooth blade. I’m going to use this jig to try and build an accordion box.
Oooh an accordion box. That sounds cool.
Another great lesson from you Tamar, thanks a million.
That’s so awesome to hear. Thanks
Best tutorial for this joint i have watched thank you.
Awesome. So glad you liked it
I watched other videos showing a similar jig, but yours explains it so much better. Thanks!
That’s awesome to hear! Thanks! Glad you found it helpful
Thank you Tamar. You are a most excellent teacher. I watch all your videos.
simple and great!thank you
Thanks!
Great video. Help out a lot. Straight forward deal. Made my first box joints thanks to your video.
That’s so awesome to hear!
just what I needed thank you!
Awesome job 🙏
It's so easy when you explain it. Thanks for the video Tamar.
So happy it was helpful!
I love how that hand saw cuts that piece of wood like butter when the video speed up. Nice job!
It was really satisfying. Ha
This was a great video. I have never seen or heard anyone explain it better.
That’s so awesome to hear. Thanks so much!
OMG! Thank you! You explained that perfectly!
Awesome. So happy you found it helpful
This was a great tip. Love your table saw setup.
Thanks!
I did it today. Works marvelous! !!
Awesome!
Perfect, I’ll be making this
great video, awesome communication! You made something which is intimidating to a newbie much more approachable. Thanks from Perth, Western Australia.
Nice! Is just what I've searching for!
Awesome. So glad it was helpful
As always, like the way you work through the process on the video. Nicely done.
Thanks so much! So glad you liked it
Thanks!
I'm making one of these these weekend!
Awesome, have fun!
Thanks to your tip of closer if too tight was the reason I finally got some to fit using my jug after too long trying!
Rather just long enough till I got it.
Great video and jig! Thanks :)
I knew this method but I love watching you, and you passing the knowledge way way better then me.
Ha. Glad you liked it
Awesome, more draws! Also thanks for sharing as I’m hoping to make a similar jig in the next week or so for boxes. Cheers!
Hahaa! Knew a few ppl would be excited about that. Love when the timing is perfect
That click at the beginning said everything....👍have a great weekend...
Right?! So satisfying. You too!
Whole lot of really good tablesaw tips and jigs!
👍👍
Thanks Tamar! Have some drawers to build in the near future and this will come in handy.
FYI. This would only be good for small drawers that don’t take a lot of use and abuse. It would need to be reinforced otherwise.
Thank you. I got some great tips from watching!
Glad to hear!
good stuff! thanks for sharing.
Good jig! I also like your tape trick, I could have used it many times. Thank you.
Thanks! Yeah. If lost thin pieces down that gap too many times.....
Nothing like a simple little thing like that to make all my concept ideas for a zero clearance insert for my table saw, and thus all the projects put off due to a lack of that insert, look silly hahaha
Tomahawk Woodwork haha! It’s the little things in life! 😂
Such a boss. Enjoy all your vids immensely. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much!
BRILLIANT, Thank you!
So happy you liked it. Thanks!
Hey, my first table saw arrives today and yours is one of the 3 main channels i'm watching for woodworking info. Thanks for all your hard work :)
Awesome to hear! Thanks! And good luck with the table saw!
Wonderful. So clear and simple. Great video.
So glad you like it. Thanks!
Yet another enjoyable video. I will be trying this later today.
Thank you for taking the time to explain the making of this jig, so as to encourage me to give it a try.
Col.
Awesome. So happy you liked it. Have fun out there!
Great video. Perfect information. Created my jig, worked perfect. I love the way you explain everything, I never have questions after watching your videos.
Thanks!
Berry smart. Thank you ma'am!
Absolutely perfect for the typical non-dado table saw. Plus benefit was being shown using painters tape to keep work from falling into the blade housing. Great presentation too. Sold, subscribing.
Glad you liked it!
Love your video and your crosscut sled! Thank you for the great tips & tutorial; well explained!
Glad you like it! Thanks!
When it comes to woodworking, I'm just like you: always trying my best to get things perfect! Although, when I do make errors , I seem to find ways to correct my mistakes.
So simply yet so clever
Thanks. Simplest is best sometimes!
Thanks again 🌹
Thanks so much for the video. I had no idea that flat tooth blades existed. You just saved me hours and hours of future sanding and grief! Thanks so much.
Haha nice!
This is really really a smart way! The highlight is at 2:51 using the first piece as another jig to add exactly one more blade thickness for the mating piece. The width of the pieces (height of box) does not have to be an integer number of blade thicknesses. Thanks and definitely will be using this trick to make boxes for my little projects.
Awesome. Glad you found it helpful!
AWESOME! Thank you.
Glad you like it
...life saver
Thank you
Such a clear presentation. As always! This might not be the jig I build but it has given me an idea. Great work and thanks for posting! 👍
Glad it was helpful!
AT 79,BEEN A CHIPPY ALL MY LIFE ( well so far) THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXPLAINED VIDEOS IV'E SEEN SO FAR IN THE 3 MONTHS I HAD A PC . NO I'M KIDDING LOVE IT CLEAR AND CONCISE .
LOVED IT THANKS TONY T.
Thanks so much! Ha
I’m a 200% noob to wood working, I had to watch this 4 times before I got an idea of what was going on. Subscribed!
Haha glad you figured it out
This is awesome!!
Thanks!
That thin-ripping jig is way cool!
Thanks!
Agree. Simple is best. Good video. Thank you.
Thanks so much! It was a great looking joint so no need to complicate anything. Ha.

Awesome. Thanks!
Really, very nice process to get some nice finger joints - thanks!
Awesome. Glad you liked it! Thanks!
What a concise but well thought out approach you have to this and other productions I've watched.
The visuals are superb and without any ambiguity, show exactly what's going on and all in sync with the narrative.
It must take you ages with planning and editing to produce your videos and it's very much appreciated.
I've become a big fan, thank you.
Thanks so much for the feedback! I could def make more projects if I wasn’t making these videos! Ha!
Totally agree.
PERFECT! Great timing too…I am going to create Finger Joints for my Stop Block on my Sled. The stop block is 4 inches wide by 3/4” so this will be or should be very easy, as long as I can rmember each step!
A very talented and charismatic professional, I find her practical work!!! Successos!!! Um alô especial do Brasil e Suriname!
Thanks!
Enjoyed the video I'm definitely going to save up and get a flat top blade then make this jig thanks for sharing your work Tamar
Awesome. It def makes a difference when doing joinery. The one I have is a little pricey. But there are more affordable ones out there.
Perfect simple jig and great instructions. I'll have to check out your video for the thin cutting jig as my neighbor has been looking for a way to make thin strips for a project. -Ed
Awesome, thanks. That’s a quick and simple one too!
Awesome!
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your skills
Glad you like it!
the best so far.
👍
Best jig for cutting thin material that I have ever seen before and simple as well :)
Awesome. Glad you liked it
Thanks. I loved the painter tape tip.
Glad it was helpful!
